my garden grows in sunshine and shadows
i’m re-reading the benni harper mystery series (by earlene fowler) and was inspired to crochet a quilt, this is the complete color repeat, but i need to add a couple more rows before it is big enough to start squaring of the corners
meet pinkie
i love being on the knitmunks team, but there were some adorable elephants done by the elefelts, and i just had to do one of these for my girls. of course it had to be pink, because who doesn’t need a little pink elephant in their life? 😉
i tried to get one of the girls to pose with pinkie, but they were all of busy do other things, maybe later?
he’s a modified version of gustav the balancing elephant
meet stumpy!
it’s spirit week in the eatsleepknit yarnathon. i’m on the knitmunks team so the mascot i needed to make was a chipmunk. he doesn’t look very happy with me, but he found a good home with a friend who collects chipmunks

since summer is shorter than winter here, my summer blanket ends one row sooner, here’s hoping there will be enough warm days to finish it….
i’m obsessed
with making poppies…
here is the next batch of 86
i keep making them and throwing them in the dye pot, adding a smidge more dye if they come out too light. i’m trying to get all of them done so i can put my dye pot away and use my stove again. i haven’t had any success in the past with storing dye once it’s made up, so i’m just trying to get them all done. of course it would have been better if i finished all of them before starting to dye, but i’m not that organized! 😉
poppies for remembrance
we are attempting to make 1-200 poppies to sell the end of october, to raise money for the local veterans fund.
i have a large ball of white crochet cotton to work with, when done i will dye them all red, add black button centers and pin backs
here is the first batch (43) crocheted and dyed
